Take Me Away

I try and keep it camoflauged

So no one else becomes alarmed

Since I keep it shadowed so well

Twice as badly I get harmed

 

Attmpts at doing away with this pain

To start off A new day fresh

But all I can see are these echoed memories

That keep on burning through my flesh

 

Screaming out, I'm on my knees

Alone with nobody to catch my fall

Keep getting shoved down further

To save my breath, I start to crawl

 

Spasms burst straight through my chest

My torso sinks to the tile floor

Right when I thnk it finally has ended

It's round two and round three, leaving me bruised up and soar

 

Clueless, I am dying

With not one person to lend me a hand

Way too weak to move a muscle

Feeling as if I never will stand

 

As depression explores the rest of myself

Spreading through like a fatal disease

I relentlessly let it **** me

The pain in my heart is finally at ease
